This is the show conducive to confidences and revelations. On Sunday January 5, Frédéric Lopez received three new guests in A Sunday in the countryside : YouTuber Major Mouvement, Olympic fencing champion Manon Apithy-Brunet and singer Michel Fugain. The opportunity for the latter todiscuss his long career – sixty years – from his difficult moments to his greatest successes. While he was going through a down period during the 1980s, the singer thought he had to leave his house: “I lived in a mill and it costs money. I told myself that I was going to find myself with two suitcases and my children in front of the gate”he revealed in particular, before explaining that he had managed to turn around and find work.
More there is one who injured him during his career: Johnny Hallyday. Indeed, the Taulier had some difficult words to hear: “Fugain, he’s dead!”reported the interpreter ofA beautiful story. And Michel Fugain, who can also be blunt when he speaks, responds: “Asshole! I'll be dead when I have no more ears or hands.” If he was hurt by this remark, the man who created the Big Bazar in 1971, a troupe of singers and dancers, was ultimately helped by Jean-Claude Camus, Johnny Hallyday's producer.
Michel Fugain, his life turned upside down by the death of his daughter Laurette
During the show, Michel Fugain also entrusted to his daughter Laurette, died in 2002 from leukemia at the age of 22. If he revealed that he finally managed to overcome this loss, the one who is also the father of Marie and Alexis revealed the effect that the death of his daughter had on him. “My daughter gets sick, that's it. And then I die, for real. I considered it a personal attack on life… You bastard! And I didn't want to go back up. J 'I put my daughter under an olive tree, the ashes…”he explained, before saying thathe had been saved by a special encounter : “Two months later, I met Sanda, who came into my life, who changed it, who turned everything upside down. […] I called her my mermaid because I was more like in the middle of the ocean, I was going down, I really didn't want to come back up. […] She saved my life.” A meeting which shows that we must not lose hope.
